Bears free-agent target Jarvis Landry franchise tagged by Dolphins

The Miami Dolphins star receiver was set to hit the free agent market when the new league year begins, but the Dolphins instead will place the franchise tag on him, the team announced Tuesday. Landry's tag will cost them about $16 million in 2018 salary cap space, leaving them in the red with free agency looming in three weeks. A person familiar with the team's plans tells The Associated Press that the Dolphins hope to sign Landry to a multi-year deal. The move by the Dolphins came on the first day that teams could assign franchise tags.

We're talking about Antonio Brown/DeAndre Hopkins-level money for a guy who took 65 percent of his snaps in the slot last season.

Landry was ejected in the fourth quarter of the season finale, a loss to Buffalo, and coach Adam Gase said the episode was embarrassing and "extremely bad".

Landry has played in 64 games with 57 starts over his four-year National Football League career and the three-time Pro Bowler topped the National Football League with a team-record 112 receptions for 987 yards (8.8 average) and a career-high nine receiving touchdowns last season.

While Landry likely will remain with the Dolphins, he lacks the security of a long-term deal for the time being. In his four seasons, Landry has 4,038 receiving yards and 22 touchdown catches for Miami.

The non-exclusive tag allows Landry to sign an offer sheet with another team.

Then there is the other side of the coin - maybe the Dolphins didn't want to Landry to have the ability to seek a contract with any other team.

As it stands, the Dolphins protected their rights to Landry with a one-year guarantee.
